I know Tanner's answer to this, but are all teenagers just #######s?

My high school reunion is this weekend--no, not going--and people are posting all these "glory days" pics all over Facebook--yes, we had cameras back then. Someone posted a group picture from our senior prom that includes me, and it reminded me that I originally agreed to go with one guy, but then got a "better" offer from a different guy so canceled the first. Real **** move. Based solely on John Hughes movies I'd assume this is pretty common, but all day I've felt like a complete jerk remembering that I'd done that. I'd like to think that I was just 17 and typically stupid, but I don't know.

Almost all teenagers are total #######s, yes.

I had a couple of different girls do that to me during HS. I remember one I was supposed to take out on a double date on Valentine's Day and I never got picked up by the guy who was driving us. The other couple went out with the girl and her better offer without telling me.

I also had a date for Homecoming locked up with the beautiful shy girl as a freshman, then a senior who had a BMW and lots of coke swept in. That just creeps me out thinking about it. Not sure she was 15 yet, I know I wasn't.

And I certainly was a #### plenty too.

Is your avatar the person you dumped? It would explain the long face. ;)

Was almost asleep on the couch at about 5:30 or so, but got up to take a whizz. My feet got tangled in the blanket and since the coffe table was right there, I didn't really have any option but to awkwardly kind of dive over to the side of it. Went down hard and kinda sideways and put my forearm out to break my fall...broke my collarbone instead.

Also managed to catch my ribs on the corner of the coffee table...thought I broke a couple of those too but turns out just bruised. Which is pretty much just as painful, but doesn't last as long. And I've been coughing and sneezing incessantly for the last three days. So good times all around!

I fell.

 
I pulled out the LOOK AT ME shtick at work today

We were discussing IKEA and someone mentioned the food

One guy mentioned it was terrible and I said the meatballs were good

He said they're made of horsemeat and I responded with LOOK AT ME...IM TOO GOOD FOR HORSEMEAT

 
See, the joke was that your girlfriend, future wife, and mother of children were three different people. Hahahaha!

I'll see myself back out.

No ####.

She became a big coke whore and her life was in a tailspin for a few years.

I'd like to think that wouldn't have happened if she had just gone to Homecoming with me. Though I'm sure she had way more fun than I did until the bottom dropped out.

Oh, I totally deserved to get stood up. I am certain I was sitting there wearing a pink sock tie waiting for her.

And to be fair, I was pretty much a dead ringer for Anthony Michael Hall in Sixteen Candles at that stage, though I didn't actually have a headgear.

I knew a girl that broke up with her boyfriend so that she could go to the prom with this other dude. Other dude was a real BMOC jagoff who was going to a junior college a couple of hours away.

The day before the prom he called the girl and said there was no way he could make it into town due to some important school stuff. She ended up not going. And it turns out the dude was lying. He wanted to go with his buddies on some spring break road trip.

Fortunately, neither.

 
When I was a freshman, I was friends with a girl who was a senior. She was very sweet, but had some definite physical issues. Bottom line, she asked me to go to prom, and if I hadn't agreed, she would have gone with her dad. I went, and thought we had a good time, but I was an idiot- we sat there the whole time, and I never once asked her to dance. It just never occurred to my idiot 15yr old brain that I would need to ask her.

Come Monday morning, one of her other friends accosts me in the hall- turns out this girl had been practicing dancing for weeks, and I had basically wrecked her senior prom. I've felt like dog#### about that for almost 30 years.

Yes, teenagers are #######s.

I thought I'd feel better if I knew that all teenagers are #######s, but now all these stories are making me sad because all teenagers are #######s.

hmm... need to come up with something better here, I'm afraid.
 
I had this fat girl asked me to prom and I told her I would only go if she bought me a new tennis racket. That doesn't seem particularly nice.

TLDR: I am ready to f#$$*# kill myself. Shoot me now, please.

We finally made it West a couple days ago. Got keys for the new property yesterday....and it's been nothing other than issues. Way dirtier than is should be. AC isn't working. Garage door openers don't function. Most concerning, the property manager doesn't seem that motivated to jump on anything("We really work for the homeowners. We are doing what we can.") WHAT?! Then work for them. I'm telling you their #### is broken. You are in charge of their property. Fix. It. Please. I'm trying to remain as polite as I can, since I realize they have other duties, but it's getting hard.

On top of that, the movers with our stuff are hitting the late end of their window and probably won't be in town before next Monday(or Tuesday). At least they've been checking in frequently though. Car shipper hasn't returned my calls in 24 hours even though "your car will be in Vegas" earlier today. Great. When is it going to make it that last 7 hours of travel?

Wife is a mess. Literally breaking down every time we remotely find something that isn't "perfect." My poor dog doesn't know which end is up because she's so emotional. He's boucning between being overly "roughneck-y" in an effort to get her to play, barking like a fool cuz he thinks something/someone is hurting her, or slinking off to mope because he thinks he's done something wrong. Best of all? I have to get up in the morning and go in for a meet and greet with the higher ups at the new job and pretend I'm super stoked to get started(I am, actually, but still) and not some "manic depressive"/angry lunatic that wants to die right now so this stops.

The one positive note(well, two I guess. The dog LOVES his new yard....if he could just get to use it more than an hour a day)? Every service provider/stranger I have had to interact with here so far has been ridiculously kind. I don't know if it's because they can tell I'm strung like a crossbow right now or what, but I hope it continues.

I wish I could drink. Heavily. But I can't be hungover tomorrow. FML.

 
Girl in high school asked me to a winter formal, but she wore a back brace to straighten her spine due to her scoliosis. I made up a story about going skiing and declined. She got the back brace off, developed some breastesses and became one of the hottest chicks in the school. Never gave me the time of day again.

I blew off a pretty girl who was shy and liked me after we made out because 1) I found out it was the first time she had been kissed and that weirded me out, and 2) she wasn't "cool" enough.

This was a couple years after I got my heart stomped on by the girls I referenced above.

All teenagers are #######s.
